Company profile
Skylark Lasers
Manufactures single-frequency ultraviolet lasers in the Edinburgh area for semiconductor wafer inspection and metrology.
Company overview
Skylark Lasers develops diode-pumped solid-state laser systems from Ratho Station in the Edinburgh area. Its ultraviolet products provide continuous-wave, single-frequency output at 320 nm and 349 nm for inspection and measurement applications. The company specifically describes their use in semiconductor defect detection, scatterometry and photoluminescence mapping of wide-bandgap materials. Its application page connects beam uniformity, linewidth and stability with repeatable wafer inspection and material characterisation. Near-infrared laser products form another part of the portfolio. These are laser systems used within semiconductor inspection equipment, not semiconductor laser diodes, and the category reflects that distinction. The company publishes its operating address and legal identity on its official website and contact page.
